DC Day Trips - Waterfall Hike
Join DC Day Trips for another adventure.
Where are we going this time?
🥾⛰️ White Oak Canyon: We'll arrive around 9:30 am to get ahead of the crowds. We'll see up to 3 of the 7 waterfalls on our 5-mile out-and-back hike.
Please note, if you drive yourself that parking is $30 per vehicle. You can use an America the Beautiful Pass if you have one.
🚙 Skyline Drive: It's not every day you come out to Shenandoah National Park! After the hike, we'll check out some of the most photogenic, scenic overlooks along the famous Skyline Drive.
😎🍻🧃🍕 Wind-down: Before we head all the way back to DC, we'll take a break at a beautiful brewery with options for a late lunch. Grab your favorite cold beverage, a picnic blanket, and hang out.

About Us
DC Day Trips is cultivating a community of Washingtonians who love the outdoors and want to spend less time planning and more time connecting with nature and friends.
We believe the outdoors should be more accessible to DC residents (no car? no problem). That's why we help plan ALL the logistics, including transportation.
This summer and fall, we are hosting trips to hike, paddle, explore, and gather in the incredible outdoor spaces the DMV has to offer. Destinations are just outside the beltway, only 1-3 hours away from DC.
